The Court assigned an Expert Panel to define the implementation plans of specific measures, which were required to “provide meaningful research, monitoring, and evaluation (RM&E) of the interim measures” Further, the injunction mandates that the USACE “fund and/or carry out RM&E to evaluate the effects of the interim measures on UWR Chinook salmon and UWR steelhead.” On February 28, 2022, the Expert Panel submitted its proposed “long term” plan for the RM&E for the remainder of the duration of the injunction. **Description of Requirement:** Requirements of this contract will occur within the Willamette Valley throughout the USACE Willamette Valley Project (WVP).
